52 Mercedes-Benz for the CHIO Aachen – traditional vehicle hand-over
They are not the only ones, who know a lot about horsepower at the CHIO Aachen: Mercedes-Benz has already been supporting the World Equestrian Festival since 1954. Once again this year the traditional brand with the star is guaranteeing the CHIO Aachen 2016 a high-class shuttle service for the athletes and guests. 52 vehicles are being placed at the disposal of the event for this purpose, among others S, E and G class vehicles. Matthias Hindemith, Director of the Mercedes-Benz Car Sales Management Rhineland, handed over the vehicles to Carl Meulenbergh, President of the Aachen-Laurensberger Rennverein e.V., organisers of the event. On the occasion of the hand-over, the Aachen City Riders also dropped by and added additional real horsepower to the horsepower of the vehicles.
